Hiccups

[vanilla_mlkshake2007]

Has anyone experienced hiccups like I do when I get a good buzz from opiates? Is it just me or do you guys also experience this?I wouldn't have asked the question but its really becoming a buzzkill when I gedt a buzz on I start hiccuping and then it will stop and the an hour later it starts again

It happens to me all the time and it is quite annoying. I try all the tricks and they will go away but come back in 20 mins for me.

count me in. I get them too.

Wow, my wife gets 'em every single time we do opies. I only get 'em occasionally. She eats a spoonful of peanut butter or honey and it works every time to stop them. But they always come back.

What a trip this thread is--I had no idea others got this too...

I feel that if this happened to me I would finally be able to stop using opiates all together. Hiccups after every fix would be terribly annoying.
Did this side-effect develop for all of you after years of use or has it always been
present?

Hi, I'm new to the site but not to the scene. . . .

Yeah, the hiccups thing is definitely something I've encountered in my travels, so to speak. Just today after downing a huge mug of poppy tea the same thing happened to my boyfriend. Drove him nuts!

The best thing I have found for it if they don't go away quickly is a benzo; the little Ativans that dissolve under your tongue are the quickest, but Xanax works or whatever you can get. I hear if someone gets intractable hiccups (imagine hiccups that didn't go away for weeks!) they pump 'em full of IV Ativan and it does the trick. I knew this was done for cancer patients at an oncology clinic my mom worked at years back and I thought their hiccups were some weird chemo side effect or something, but thinking of it now, probably a lot of those patients were on high-dose opiates too. Interesting . . . .

As to what about the drug actually causes this, you got me there!

^Hello, and welcome to the board! This place rocks--hope you dig it and stick around...

But in regards to your post, I can see how a benzo might help, but in our personal situation, when my wife is completely fucked up on heroin, the last thing I think she'd want is a benzo---that can be a very dangerous combo.

I said it before, and it works: a spoonful of peanut butter will stop hiccups dead in their tracks. Unless of course, you're allergic to peanut butter, then it would probably suck for you. ;)

The benzos are what usually give me hiccups. Xanax is the WORST not just me my freinds too. I use sugar to make them go away.

[HistoryofMadness]

Occasionlly but mostly from morphine or cuppa pod tea...

A hiccup is your bodies way of telling you to breath more. This happens with opiates because the resperitory depression. If you get up and move around a bit they tend to go away. It is a direct result of the nod really.

Be safe!

CRAZY!!!!!!! serioulsy fuckin crazy, this JUST started happening to me recently. I have never had this happen before in all my opiated years, but just within the last couple of months, every time I slam a good hit of H I start this hiccuping ritaul that wont fuckin stop!!

I mean I hold my breath and that works for an hour, then BAM, there back......creepy......I wonder if our shit is getting cut with something weird lately.

It seems to only happen when i get a really good buzz,the only way I can get rid of them is by tipping my head over actually bending over like I fold myself in half but standing up,its hard to explain and then drink out of the oppisite side of the cup.Its hard to do but I learned about it in an Health Encyclopedia.Wow after reading all these posts I'm glad I'm not alone.Oh and it always has been present!

[superman]

a good whack often gives me hiccups, they tend not to last for me though

[opiobsessed]

Lol, you guys are the coolest I swear, I was just hiccupping away at suppertime just last night in front of my mom and I think she is so used to every little detail when I'm nodding on an opiate that she just looks at me like"okay obsessed I know you've taken something you dont have to even tell me"I know why you are hiccupping. Well I tried to throw it off course and I said, damn I hate that when I hiccup when I eat too fast or when I eat dinner rolls. I do however definately hiccup like crazy when I'm even on vicodin, it happens mainly while I"m eating but for the first time last night, I kept it up long after I got done with supper. My mom got a phone call luckily, I went into the basement to dose up again and I took a deep breath and held it in as long as I could, slowly blew it out and from then on I was fine. Next time ya'll get the hicks going try what I did last night, it might work or help. Ha ha I'm sitting here reading this post and was just hiccupping myself after a big fresh glass of poppy tea mmmm, then a benzo to wash it down and enhance it. By the way to the poster right above me, I love your avatar, made me laugh till my tummy hurt, ha ha 3 squirrels at it eh? well too bad they weren't on opiates or they would not be doin it to it.

I was just on vacation eatin mugfuls of grindings seaside and I started gettin the fuckin hiccups again for the tenth time this week. I'm like "what the fuck" well at least I know its not just me Another giveaway just what I need

~S~

[opiobsessed]

Wow do I ever get them too, I mainly start hiccuping alot all the time I'm eating supper or a meal, its a dead giveaway to my family that I'm opiated again. I have too keep chugging down water after each mouthful or two of food just to keep them away somewhat, sure is aggravating though.

[exitwound]

Never really had em myself, but because of my opiate nausea/vomiting sensitivity I can't manage to get very high anyway.

[skeletontea]

I have gotten hiccups on occasion while opiated, but not with enough frequency to really stand out as being caused by the opies.
